"The Safari Chronicles" is a fictional story, with which the reader can easily identify, due to its highly realistic nature. Several major crises happen to the lead character, Jim, who finally goes on a safari to find himself. The adventure proves to be more than he had bargained for (despite the fact that the safari was free of charge, in terms of monetary price). Over the course of the safari, Jim reads from a manuscript left to him by one of the leaders of the group. This script proves to be his guide for courage and strength, in what becomes a struggle for survival. It would not be fair to pass off this book as a mere fictional drama. Due to its realism, the reader cannot help but use Jim as a focal point for his or her own struggles, past or present. This book can be useful for educating oneself about priorities -- how to rank them, and how to go about implementing them; but could be especially helpful for anyone who is currently at a crossroad in his/her life. In short, it deals with the truths that we all know (or should know) about life, and illustrates one man's successful struggle with incorporating them into real life.

Mr. Butts has invented a whole new genre with this book. I literally could not put it down. Aside from being a genuine, keep you up all night page-turner, it comes with some really interesting, inspiring thoughts on living. I liked it and would like to see more. I would highly recommend it.

I love this book!

This is an engaging and familiar story that you'll enjoy. In this outstanding book I felt like I was reintroduced to people I once knew and now I want to get to know even more...

This is an outward journey to a place deep within all of us. You will never forget The Safari Chronicles. Enjoy your trip!

I Rarely write reviews and yet I was Compelled to Tell You that THIS was an Excellent read. I was surprisingly on the edge of my seat and experienced a Wide Range of emotions while Fully Absorbed in the Adventure I simply Could Not Stop Reading. I can Hardly Wait to learn what happens next as I eagerly await the release of Safari Chronicles Vol 2 - The Ancient Library. C'mon Rick - Git-'er-Done! ;o)

This fictional adventure is really an instructional book on how to be a better person through the remainder of your life. The Three Tresures of Courage described in this book offer us the insight into how to change our life in a very positive manner.

Rick's work is excellent. The adventure becomes so real and vivid in your mind that you'll just know that the book was written for you. It is hard to put the book down! The journey to find the three treasures- the treasure of the mind; the treasure of the heart; and the treasure of the spirit captures the ups and downs we all face. You'll appreciate the wisdom of Rick's work.

I've had the pleasure of attending several of Rick's live presentations, and this book is a great compliment to his live seminars. He has many wonderful ideas for living in the 21st Century Jungle.
